Shokugeki no Imitation Chef

"Chef Liu, are you alright?" Henggou asked after seeing Liu Maoxing.

"It's nothing, I didn't rest well last night, I made you two laugh." Naturally, Liu Maoxing would not tell Henggou and Li Yuan that his eyes had "awakened".

"It's good that it's okay, after that it's the second... the assessment to be promoted to the first-class chef!" Henggou said with a little dignity.

Originally, he instinctively wanted to say that it was the assessment for second-class chefs to be promoted to first-class chefs, but Liu Maoxing had also read the list and understood that the undercurrent of this assessment was turbulent. The third-class chef declares for the promotion of the first-class chef!

Leapfrog declaration is also very rare in the history of Yuanyue Resort, let alone 30 people at a time.

Liu Maoxing's attention was also on these thirty people...

However, Henggou, Li Yuan, Liu Maoxing and the others tacitly "jumped" the names of the other twenty-five cooks, leaving the thirty in the last batch...

After Henggou announced that "cooking has begun", Liu Maoxing's eyes gradually faded away, as if he was watching these people's cooking again without subjective consciousness.

Liu Maoxing has also discovered that now his "super vision" can only lock on one target at a time, as long as he has watched the cooking process, he can completely analyze the recipe, and if his cooking skills meet the requirements, he can "copy" the other party at any time recipes.

But that alone is not enough for Mira to "copy" Master Xie's shadowless face. Her pastry skills are far from that level, and even knowing the recipe is useless!

And this is related to another ability of "super vision"... directly copying the other party's cooking skills and sense of food!

But it can be saved for about fifteen minutes at most, that is to say, if the other party stops cooking, or Liu Maoxing can no longer see the other party's cooking, then he can only use this "copied" cooking skill for another fifteen minutes.

Moreover, while using the "copy" ability, Liu Maoxing's own cooking skills and food control will not be able to be used. Once used, the "copy" state will be interrupted, and the "super vision" must be used to copy again...

As for the effect of super vision on the "heart of cooking", because Liu Maoxing has not yet achieved "heart of cooking", and the twenty-five people on the other side also have no heart of cooking, so it is still unknown.

It's just that Liu Maoxing speculates that it can be "duplicated"...

In the end, the performance of the twenty-five people was quite normal. Twenty of them passed, and five people made mistakes due to nervousness. The re-declaration will be next year.

Then came the real highlight. The other 30 cooks entered their respective cooking tables and started cooking...

"En? This is... the heart of the chef? The heart of the chef who cut thistle?" Liu Maoxing's heart moved slightly.

In Liu Maoxing's heart, the hearts of these thirty people have been reflected. Under the "super vision", it seems that behind them, there is a huge half-length figure, like a huge demon, like a marionette , manipulating them to cook, and what thirty people are doing is the same "French lamb saddle steak"...

That's right, it's obviously the same recipe, at this moment among the 30 people, it seems that they all regard this "French Lamb Saddle Steak" as their "must-kill dish"!

Obviously, under the "food sense", they only have super three-star cooking skills, but when making this "must kill dish", they burst out with "cooking heart"...

Although Liu Maoxing felt that it was not the cook who was controlling the "cooking heart", but the "cooking heart" was controlling people!

After having a "cooking heart", the cook will integrate the power of will into the cooking, not only can touch the hearts of diners when being tasted, but also feel this will when cooking the power of.

It’s just that ordinary people feel very vague. When Liu Maoxing saw Joichiro’s cooking for the first time, he only felt that the aura of the other party was very oppressive. It was only when he was tasting that he “saw” the figure of Shura. and face.

A cook with a "sense of food" can already perceive this will more clearly. As for Liu Maoxing, who has "super vision", he can "see" it directly!

Henggou and Li Yuan already had serious expressions on their faces, and the other two judging chefs seemed to have known something for a long time.

"Sure enough, it's exactly what Kojima and the others said, with exactly the same 'must-kill cuisine' and the same heart of cooking!" Li Yuan said in a deep voice.

Must-kill cuisine refers to the cooking that a cook uses beyond his or her own ability, which can be regarded as a "sentry" of cooking skills. Continuous research on "must-kill cuisine" is not far from the overall improvement of cooking skills up.

If there is only one third-class chef now, and he has a must-kill dish that can show his "cooking heart", Henggou and Li Yuan will be too happy, because it means that Yuanyue Resort has found another talent worth cultivating !

But now there are thirty people popping up at once, and they all have the same must-kill dish. What's even more weird is that they all feel the same from "Chef's Heart", so they can't be happy...

Because as the senior chefs of Yuanyue Group, they knew that "that one" had a similar "delusion" ten years ago. Although that person's name is now taboo in Yuanyue, they still remember it. That "delusion"!

"Did he...really succeed?" Li Yuan asked in disbelief.

"Instant cooking heart? How is it possible!" Henggou seemed determined, but in fact he lacked a bit of confidence.

Liu Maoxing suddenly said: "From the perspective of 'touching people's hearts', these 30 'French-style lamb saddle steak' should have first-class chefs, even surpassing the cooking level of ordinary first-class chefs. Does the chef think that this level can be considered qualified?"

The level of cooking is the level of touching the hearts of diners. Although their "French Lamb Saddle Steak" itself is only a super three-star or even two-star level, once the "cooking heart" takes effect, it will undergo a qualitative transformation. In terms of touching the soul, it is even close to Liu Maoxing's three-in-one mapo tofu in the preliminaries of the "Autumn Selection Competition".

"Since the level has been reached, it is naturally passed. What is there to talk about?"

It wasn't Henggou or Li Yuan who spoke. There was another Jiangyuan chef who was in charge of the review. Although not as old as Li Yuan and Henggou, he was also one of the senior chefs of Yuanyue Resort.

"Chef Jiangyuan thinks, which is more important to a cook, the 'cooking heart' or a pair of hands that know all kinds of cooking skills?" Liu Maoxing did not refute his words, but asked back.

Jiang Yuan didn't know what he meant, so he thought for a while and said, "If a cook doesn't have hands, he won't be able to do it... But from the perspective of cooking skills, at our level, you should be able to understand that the 'chef's heart' is often stronger than hands. important!"

Then he added: "Oh, by the way, Chef Liu is a connoisseur, and he hasn't achieved a 'culinary heart' in cooking, so it may be a bit incomprehensible..."

That's right, tasters can only help people perfect dishes, and this is a matter of cooking skills and food taste, and has nothing to do with "cooking heart".

For cooks at or above the Tiger level, it is far more difficult to improve their culinary skills than their food sense and food control, and the difficulty of improving their food sense and food control is far greater than their "cooking heart"!

Although "cooking heart" is difficult to get started, once mastered, cooking skills will immediately enter a new level.

"Well, here comes the question, during the review... If someone helps them complete a dish, can it be counted as passing the review?" Liu Maoxing asked immediately.

Jiang Yuan felt that he seemed to be fooled, but he said immediately: "Of course not! But now Chef Liu sees someone helping them hand in hand?"

"Huh? Chef Jiang Yuan is no longer just now. Is the 'cooking heart' more important to a cook than his hands? Now if someone helps them with a kitchen heart, isn't it more than holding hands? Naturally, it can't be considered a pass." ?” Liu Maoxing said in feigned surprise.

"It's a bunch of nonsense! How can the 'Chef's Heart' be lent to be used by others?" Jiang Yuan retorted.

However, after Henggou and Li Yuan looked at each other again at this time, they both nodded and said: "Well, what Chef Liu said makes sense... If their 'cooking heart' is temporarily borrowed from other people, then naturally it will not be approved. They should even be disqualified as official cooks and expelled from Yuanyue Resort! If they really mastered it with some 'tricks'... it can be counted as their real strength!"

That's right, Henggou and Li Yuan have already made a decision, that is, to explore this weird thing, instead of directly pressing to death...

In the hearts of the two of them, there was no longer any sectarianism. If Nakieji had really researched some quick way to become a "cooking heart", then the two of them would have nothing to say.

What they are passionate about is cooking, not forming gangs. If Natsukiji is really capable...they can accept the capable ones and the mediocre ones.

But if it's just some kind of trickery, then the two of them are not afraid of offending others, and they will definitely veto the thirty people.

Although 30 cooks meant that there were at least 15 chefs who recommended them for review!

And Liu Maoxing has "super vision", but he is 80% sure that this "cooking heart" is not a quick way, but a special function of the "cooking heart" that chops thistles.

The special ability of "Culinary Heart" is very strange. In the era of China, Ren's "Culinary Heart" can even deceive himself. The "Sura Kitchen Heart" that I have seen before can make people who taste it forget for a while. The taste of other dishes...

Now it is very possible that Nakieji has achieved a special cooking heart that can control other cooks and make the controlled one use a little bit of his own cooking heart ability!

After the cooking was done, Liu Maoxing put out a "French-style lamb saddle steak" in front of no one. Thinking that there were 29 more to come, the five judges couldn't help but feel a little tired.

It is impossible for the other party not to have thought of this, but to think to himself that the level of this dish can ignore the subjective fluctuations of ingredients and evaluation...

"Ahem, Chef Henggou, if you can't decide for a while, why not taste the other twenty-nine dishes first! Maybe there will be a clue!" Liu Maoxing said suddenly.

The other chefs didn't object either, and now they have focused their differences on whether this kind of chef's heart was developed by themselves in a special way, or the special ability of the chef's heart who cut thistle...

But now Henggou and Li Yuan couldn't judge for a while. After listening to Liu Maoxing's proposal, they naturally agreed, but Liu Maoxing's eyes flickered slightly, and secretly said: This super vision is really timely, cutting thistle... Bad luck for you!
